Cheryn Croker and her crew of Daydream certainly had something to write home about (to LOTS – Ladies on Tuesday Sailing) after last week’s racing with Daydream in other Squadron events.
Daydream is the only LOTS crew so far to venture into Saturday racing with the Squadron, joining Division 4, and also racing in the Friday evening open club twilights.

Defending World champion Maarten Jamin from The Netherlands and Australian champion Michael Nash are equal on points going into tomorrow’s final two races of the International Yngling Open World Championships being conducted on Sydney Harbour by the Royal Sydney Yacht Squadron.

Gilmour finished with a 16 win, 2 loss score line, which gives him the privilege of choosing his opponent for the quarter finals, and he had no hesitation in selecting eighth placed Jay Griffin from Sydney’s Cruising Yacht Club of Australia.
It was the Royal Sydney Yacht Squadron’s Jordan Reece who made second place, ahead of Perth skipper, Peter Nicholas with New Zealand’s Josh Junior fourth.
